Core Features
The BigMile platform calculates transport emissions using a methodology that is third-party verified to ISO 14083:2023 and accredited to the Smart Freight Centre’s GLEC Framework. For developers, the Emissions API can return both tank-to-wheel and well-to-wheel results, so teams can match internal reporting preferences while keeping calculations consistent across modes. The platform further provides:
Easy data onboarding: Custom templates, CSV/XLSX upload, API upload, and a smart importer that validates data before calculation.
Multimodal coverage & routing: Calculate across air, road, sea, rail and inland waterways. Routing includes an internal engine for sea freight that determines likely routes and trade-lanes; geocoding guidance explains how locations are resolved.
Verified calculations & allocation: ISO 14083-verified, GLEC-accredited calculations with shipment-level allocation options.
Analysis tools: Use dashboards to refine results; the Details Table supports consignment-level views and exports, with tips to filter out abnormal values. BigMile also surfaces CPI metrics (CO₂e per ton and CO₂e per ton·km) and a Fleet overview that flags conflicting vehicle data.
Reporting & sharing: Generate automatic ISO 14083-formatted reports, including aggregate and customer-level outputs; schedule and email reports, share data (send/receive), and use a subcontractor portal to gather partner data.
Integrations & developer support: An in-browser API request builder speeds setup; create multiple API keys for different end-customers, and feed verified emissions back into planning, TMS/ERP or e-commerce flows.
Closing Insights
BigMile currently serves over 300 customers, including well-known brands like Belden, a global leader in network infrastructure solutions. Belden uses BigMile to share data with around six different logistics providers, streamlining collaboration across its outsourced transport operations. Its teams value the platform’s interactive visual analysis, which revealed high CO₂ per kilo for certain customers due to frequent small shipments. This insight prompted discussions to reduce shipment frequency. Initially deployed in the Netherlands as a pilot, Belden plans to expand BigMile use across Europe, North America, and potentially worldwide. Belden and other prospective users also benefit from help beyond software. BigMile publishes a practical knowledge base while offering a subscription plan that includes a free consultancy allotment each year.
